After a warm and busy day in Puglia, it is time to relax and enjoy the magic of Mediterranean nights. This tour starts at sunset, continues during twilight and finishes at night. It takes place in the beautiful and peaceful countryside of Rudiae. First, we will visit the archaeological park, then, surrounded by nature, olive trees and remains of ancient civilizations, we will enjoy some stargazing and talk about myths, constellations, history, cosmology and more.

What's Included

Tour with a guide and entrance to the Archeological Park of Rudiae.
As we can provide just some flashlights, we ask participants to come with their mobile phones fully charged; therefore, they could use them as flashlights for moving when it gets dark.
We suggest participants to bring a beach towel or fabric for covering the floor in case they would like to lye or sit on the ground while we are at the arena of the Roman amphitheater.
We suggest participants to bring some mosquito repellent spray.
